title = "The insulinotropic effect of endothelin-1 is mediated by glucagon release from the islet alpha cells",
abstract = "The circulating concentrations of endothelin-1 (ET-1), a peptide derived from endothelium, are increased in hypertension and diabetes. Endothelin-1 has recently been shown to be an insulinotropic agent. The mechanism of action of endothelin-1 on the endocrine pancreas has not yet been clarified.",
